Mr. Nothing's got a lotHe's got a lot to sayHe's good at being what he's notGives nothing awayAnother day goes on byAnd he never speaks his heartHe takes his chance with what he's gotIt's too late now to stop

You push and you pull and struggle with the knotIt's tying you up while you're fadin'You give and you take and take what you gotRound and round 'till it breaks andYou push and you pull and struggle with the knotIt's tying you up while you're fadin' into your lie

Mr. Nothing is lateHe's running out of timeHe questions whether chance or fate will ever show a signLooks to the sky aboveFor a glimpse of what it meansAnd never never never makeMake no sense to him

You push and you pull and struggle with the knotIt's tying you up while you're fadin'You give and you take and take what you gotRound and round 'till it breaks andYou push and you pull and struggle with the knotIt's tying you up while you're fadin' into your lie
